About HeatPumpClarity
HeatPumpClarity was created to help homeowners in the Hudson Valley and Westchester County better understand heat pumps, available incentives, and whether a heat pump may be a good fit for their home before speaking with an installer.
This site exists to do four things:
- ✓Educate
Homeowners about heat pump technology, how they work, and their benefits in our climate
- ✓Clarify
Complex incentive programs and government jargon into plain English
- ✓Simplify
The path to understanding your heat pump options and estimated incentives
- ✓Empower
Homeowners to make informed decisions before speaking with contractors
I'm Gregg, and I live in Cortlandt Manor. I'm not a neutral referee and I'm not going to pretend to be one — I'm a homeowner in this county who read the Clean Heat program manual closely and wants to work in this trade.
Contractors may pay me a referral feewhen I connect them with a homeowner. That fee is paid by the contractor, not by you, and it doesn't change your price, your rebate, or any amount shown on this site.
The reason to trust the numbers here is that every one of them is sourced to the state's program manual and dated — not that I have no stake.
- Install equipment or perform installations
- Conduct home energy audits or inspections
- Give you a binding quote — only a contractor can do that
- Guarantee eligibility, which your utility decides
The job here is to help you understand your options and likely incentive before you speak with an installer.
We specialize in helping homeowners in the following regions understand heat pumps and the NYS Clean Heat program:
- Westchester County
- Putnam County
- Dutchess County
- Rockland County
We focus on utilities including Central Hudson, Con Edison, National Grid, NYSEG, RG&E, and Orange & Rockland.
All incentive information on this site is based on current NYS Clean Heat program rules and utility company requirements.
We understand that:
- Incentive amounts may change as programs update budgets and requirements
- Eligibility is not guaranteed until final review by NYSERDA and your utility
- Site-specific factors may affect your final incentive amount
We update our information regularly, but you should always confirm details with NYSERDA and your utility before making purchasing decisions.
Our estimates are based on publicly available information:
- NYS Clean Heat program guidelines
- Individual utility company incentive rates
- Your home type, equipment choice, and location
- DAC (Disadvantaged Community) factors if applicable
Use our eligibility tool to get a personalized estimate for your situation.
